2018 Year in Review!
2018 has been a blast!
Here are some highlights from this year!
- The Sweet Softies Youtube Channel was selected as one of the Top 20 Amigurumi Youtube Channels by Feedspot!
- I developed and hosted my very first Creator Challenge, with the Some-Bunny To Love pattern. It was so much fun and I loved seeing all the adorable bunnies made from around the world!
- I made a 10 Things About Me post!
- I crocheted my BIGGEST amigurumi to date, 21-inch Jane the Jumbo Bunny, made with super bulky yarn!
- One of my quick, easy, and free patterns, the Itty Bitty Ice Cream Cone, was featured in AllFreeCrochet's article: "19 Unbelievably Cute Beginner Amigurumi Patterns"!
- My doll design, Sanjana the East Indian doll, was featured in Australian Homespun Magazine's July 2018 edition!
- The Winter Crochet Book magazine from Future Publishing, which includes my Christmas Angel pattern, was in stock at my local Costco!
- The support that I receive on social media blows my mind! My FB page has 2.7k followers, my FB group has 6.1k members, and my Instagram has 2.1k followers. (At this time last year, my following was 1.8k on FB, 4.1k in my FB group, and 1.4k on Instagram.) Thank you all for liking my work!
Thinking about this year in review really takes me back to each of these events that occurred! It's such a humbling experience for me to be able to accomplish these tasks, and I thank all my fellow crocheters and followers for supporting me through this journey! Thank you all so much!
